Donald Trump addressed the violence in Charlottesville, Virginia, at a press conference on Saturday afternoon, and people aren't happy. Addressing the clashes at a white nationalist rally which has left at least one person dead, Trump condemned bigotry and violence “on both sides.” In the same speech, he said that the kind of violence seen in Charlottesville was an ongoing issue in America, and predated his administration.

Trump made his remarks at a press conference in Bedminster, New Jersey, which had been scheduled for him to sign The Veterans Affairs Choice and Quality Employment Act of 2017. But after reports of clashes at an alt-right rally in Charlottesville, he instead began his remarks by addressing the violence.

He said,

We condemn in the strongest possible terms this egregious display of hatred, bigotry, and violence. On many sides. Many sides. This has been going on for a long time in our country. Not Donald Trump, not Barack Obama. It's been going on for a long long time.
